Radeon 8500 runs with perfection for me, even with my PIII 700. Just purchased it for $210 for the retail boxed version. Geforce is expensive but nice, but ATI has been releasing drivers often to get all of the features of their card up and running. Its up to you, I was planning on getting a Ti200 until I saw the 8500 for $210, then I just couldnt pass it up.

hhmmm.....then why would John Carmack say that the Radeon 8500 would fare better in Doom3 then the GF3?
